Mine is blue.

Mine is blue.

What's the model's number..?

I can't get the bloody wrist boot off to check... directions in the manual suck. Sorry.

It's been my general experience with backlighting that blue is a technology progression from green. Your new Vyper should therefore have a BLUE backlight. Mine's only three years old.

Mine is green, and got it just a few days.

Same as sachar. I got mine 2 days ago and it's green.

mine is also green. About a year old

Green huh? That's counter to the backlight mainstream. Maybe there's some underwater advantage to that colour over blue. Or maybe newer Vypers are just... different. Next year it'll be purple.

Never used mine before but looking now i dont know how to describe it. Bluey-green.
Maybe more bluey. Very easy to read in the dark though it seems.
